...talk among yourselves...

As I watched TV this morning, I saw the Occupy Wall Street coverage. I'm wondering if they are as crazy as I first thought.
.
Most of their concerns seem to be about like ours.
.
Wall Street caused ALL the problems in league with D.C., and NO ONE is looking into how that got done.
.
Wall Street caused ALL the problems in league with D.C., then they bailed themselves out with OUR money, and NO ONE is looking into how that got done.
.
Wall Street caused ALL the problems in league with D.C., then they bailed themselves out with OUR money, continue to blame everyone BUT Wall street and D.C. and NO ONE is looking into how that got done.
.
I'm thinking that where we differ is in HOW to solve this problem. I think it gets solved by allowing small business to KEEP more money and operate with fewer regulations. The Wall Street occupiers want us to be North Korea but THEY get to be our Supreme Leaders because they say so! (which oddly is how NK has been run for about 60 or 70 years!)
.
My fear is that some moderate Dem or worse still some moderate Republican (Romney) will wind up in the WH.
.
What do you think?

This is a loose conglomeration of disenfranchised people who have to cohesive thoughts on the issues. They are trying but won't succeed in a similar vain to the Tea Party, which many of them embrace, and many of them shun. Most are just morons.

How's this: Cain / Paul 2012 ?

"to" should be "no"

BOW,
I think the original goofs were what you describe. But now they're pulling in, what appears to be, the same people who got Obama elected! Everybody Left of the Tea Party.

People generally pissed off at anyone with money and Republicans is what got him elected.

I'm just no so sure the truly disenfranchised, can afford the clothes and shoes that I'm seeing on the news. Not that I'm bitching, but I don't have $200 running shoes and $100 Patagonia fleece jackets!

I do think they see themselves as the Tea Party of the Left. I'm just hoping they self destruct before they set us all on fire.

I'm voting for Herman Cain

Why have a long debillitating disease when you can check out early said...

I'm voting for Obama.

Schteveo said...

According to some lefty my son heard somewhere Friday, you are just voting for Cain to HIDE your true racism. That's right, according to MSM maggotry thinking, you'd elect a nigger rather than admit that you hate niggers.

Personally he looks better to me every day.

(where can I buy one?) (the idiots, the stupid, stupid idiots!)

If the anarchists on Wall St. had marched on the WH or congress, i'd have more sympathy for them. We all know the financial meltdown started when Demoncrats in congress forced banks and other lending institutions to give loans to people they knew couldn't repay them.

In other words, it was intended to allow blacks who were making $200. per week (if that) to buy $400+K homes so they could "live the American dream". Well, were i come from, the "American dream" is that you work your ass off so that when you do buy that home, you can actually pay for it.

I still believe the protests are simply a devise to take attention away from how bad things under Obummer truly are, and also as a counter to the Tea Party. What i find troubling is that i've heard nothing from the Tea Party since last Nov. If that movement has dried up, we're in BIG trouble!

Anon, if you'd vote for Obama, you're just as blind now as the voters were 3 years ago. WORSE in fact.

You've got 3 years of this idiot to judge him by now.


Spider,
it's some smoke and mirrors for sure. But inadvertently it's shining on Obama failures in the economy. I've seen some of the talking heads questioning his bail outs too.

Yesterday I heard two Hollywood types questioning Wall Street, Congress, Bush AND OBAMA in this crap sandwich of lies and pay offs.

Obama is loosing the western state unions. How long before they start talking to eastern state union guys? IF Hitlary EVER wanted to walk in and be POTUS, now is her best chance.

Don't call me anomymous said...

Who called me Anon? I just figure I'm better off tossing in the towel, get offed by obamacare, no longer be strangled by taxes, etc. Just do me in quick and screw em.

Well said Spider. You are correct in your assessment of the cause of the financial meltdown.

These protesters seem to have a few legitimate grievances, but they are barking up the wrong tree. They would do much better taking their act to Capitol Hill and the White House.

Don't call me Anonymous,
get a 'handle for in here and I'll call you whatever.

Did you see the news today that Soros id 'funding' the WSJersk news paper? I'm betting you that they don't see him as one of the rich guys. Odd that!
